Re: Gloster Meteor T.7
Hi Jason
Personally i would tone down the difference in panels as it's painted and not bare metal
don't think they where glossy so most where quite dirty in scervice.
But it looks great as it is
Regards
Rick

TBH
The more even tone..as Rick say there is less variation when painted ......maybe the odd new panel but subtle and generally more even but a little grubby rather than dirty...if you follow
But It look great as it is......just depends on what sits right in your mind

Re: Gloster Meteor T.7
Well i went back to the drawing board...made a few changes, alpha channel changed, removed the highlighted panels...some of this...some of that and added some different weathering.
It kinda came out like this.

Re: Gloster Meteor T.7

Hi Jason,
Got the earlier one and she looks great. Only coment would be that it is a bit too reflective. That may be an FSX thing, but could it be too much alpha? I'm not sure I'm using the right terminology
